Karol A. Bisbee

Karol was our attorney to review my widowed mother's legal preparation as she approached assisted living changes from living independently. Some documents had been prepared previously by other attorneys and Karol did not propose redoing them. Karol suggested and prepared only the necessary amendmen...ts to keep those documents up to date with changes in the law, saving my Mom unnecessary expense. As the years passed, and as my Mom's healthcare needs changed Karol was with us every step of the way to manage funds and eventually to file for MassHealth when the time came for nursing home. Karol's recommendation of using a "Pooled Trust" to preserve my Mom's funds for her personal needs was excellent. As my Mom aged in the nursing home, I was able to pay for extra private duty aides and buy necessary clothing, eye glasses and other things Medicare and MassHealth do not pay for. Now that my Mom has passed away, finalizing her estate has been simple. As my Mom's time approached I knew what to do and everything was in place. Karol answered my questions if any arose. Because of the experience with my Mom's estate, my husband and I have also used Karol's services to establish our own Trust, Wills, Healthcare Directives etc. Karol's approach is one of building the clients' knowledge. An appointment with Karol is very educational. I learned so much from her guidance and am relieved our plans are in place. Karol's style is warm and congenial. I highly recommend using her for estate planning.

Karol has been my parents attorney for many years now. If there was ever anything they had a question about, Karol responded immediately When my father passed away almost five years ago, Karol responded to my mom's needs and questions professionally and with great compassion. I would recommend her... services for anyone needing competent, caring legal assistance.
